Over the weekend, I tried to check out TailGunner Trailers. I had mentioned this company in another thread as a place to get ideas for using part of a corvette body to make a trailer. To my surprise, I was linked to a website that said "This Domain Is For Sale". Anybody know what happened with these folks? (The website is (or was) "http://www.tailgunnertrailers.com")

You're right about the site being gone.  I did find some other info through the Lycos search engine:

1113 Murfreesboro Rd.
PO
Box 114
Franklin, TN 37064
615-297-1222

Don't know if they're still in business.  Franklin, TN is just south of Nashville I believe.  I know StingrayJim passes through there occasionally, maybe he knows the place or can do a drive by for you.

Well, that's not quite right. It would not be my first trailer build by any means.  Just never like a vette before. 

But hey when you build a trailer, some things are left behind.

Sorry man... I still can't picture it. I think we better stay focused on the vette trailer!

Those are cool...!!!  I'm going to guess that the '55 Nomad probably has the most usable space but they need to get a C3 Vette to add to the stable!
